"Where is Elijah?" Rebekah is fuming. Nicole comes down the stairs. "Dad I think the AC is busted. Aunt Rebekah!" Nicole runs into her aunts arms and hugs her. "Hello lovely. I missed you." Rebekah releases her. "I missed you too. What are you doing here?" Rebekah turned to address Klaus again. "Trying to find Elijah." Klaus' phone starts buzzing. He checks it, stands and moves to leave. "Dad, Where are you going?" Klaus kisses her forehead. "It appears the night is not quite over, yet. I'm off for another drink with Marcel." He starts to leave. "Elijah told me about your plan to take apart Marcel's empire piece by piece. I don't remember it involving you two drinking New Orleans dry together." Nicole looked at her father with questioning eyes. "I know you don't have many friends, Rebekah, but what some friends do when they get together is they drink. And when they drink, they tell secrets. Marcel has somehow found a way to control the entirety of witches in the Quarter, and I aim to uncover the 'how' so I might take it for myself. Finding Elijah didn't make my to-do list today." He smirked. "Yeah I just learned how to do magic and I can't use it. Can we find out what he's up to sooner rather than later?" Klaus turns to his daughter. "I will do my best." Nicole smiles and he walks to the door, but pauses before he leaves. "Oh, and welcome home, little sister." The door shuts behind him and Rebekah turns on the spot, contemplating what he's said.
She sees Hayley sitting on a landing above. "Nicole, wolf girl. I'm going to search this house inch by inch until I find what my evil brother has done to my good one. You're helping." The girls walk down a spiral staircase. "The governor had lots of secret rooms. I'll show you his favorite." They arrive in a dusty, cobwebbed cellar room. Hayley spies the coffins that Klaus keeps his siblings daggered in and looks at Nicole with wide eyes. Nicole too is in shock. "You think Klaus killed him." Hayley stated. Nicole looked at Rebekah with sad eyes. "We can't be killed, silly girl. That doesn't stop Klaus from finding ways to torture us. He has a set of mystical silver daggers. One in the heart sends us into a deep slumber." Nicole tries to remain calm even though she is fuming at the fact her father does that. "Klaus gets his jollies from keeping us in a box, until he decides to pull the dagger out. That must be what he's done to Elijah. This one's mine." Hayley stops walking. "He keeps your coffin on standby?!" Nicole eyes her aunt and clenches her jaw in anger. "He likes to be prepared for when his family members inevitably disappoint him. Elijah's isn't here – he must've stashed him elsewhere." Hayley grabs her stomach. "I feel sick." Nicole shakes her head "This is insane." Rebekah shrugs. "Welcome to the family, girls. Hayley, You should've ran the second you realized Elijah was gone." Hayley laughs. "Yeah, well, the witches have put some sort of hex on me. As long as I'm carrying this baby, I can't leave New Orleans. If I do, they kill me." Nicole puts a comforting hand on Hayley's shoulder. "Well, knowing Klaus, he's planning a box for you the second you give birth to whatever's cooking in your tum. I'm leaving as soon as I find Elijah. Being daggered in a box for decades sucks, trust me. You'd best find a way to break that hex and run." Rebekah goes off to continue her search, leaving Hayley to consider what she's said. "I'm gonna head into town for a bit. I wanna sight see." Nicole said putting her sneakers on. "Alright just be careful. Remember; no magic." Nicole nodded and walked out the door.
